In the following years other operas by Mozart were performed.<\/p>\n<p>With almost 700 seats, Estates Theater is today one of the stages of the National Theater and is used for ballet and drama performances, with the operas of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart forming a program focus.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"t-1671647693408\">Contact<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Address:<\/strong> \u017delezn\u00e1, Star\u00e9 M\u011bsto, 110 00 Prague<\/li>\n<li><strong>Public Transport<\/strong>:&nbsp; Subway line A, gr\u00fcne Linie und U-Bahnlinie B, gelbe Linie, Haltestelle M\u016fstek&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Opening Hours<\/strong>: Opening hours can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.narodni-divadlo.cz\/en\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>. &nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"\">Related Articles<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/theater\" dynamic-postlink=\"tcb_post_the_permalink\" data-shortcode-id=\"892\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top: 0px !important; margin-top: 0px !important; text-align: center;\" id=\"t-1679565490081\"><span data-shortcode=\"tcb_post_title\" data-shortcode-name=\"Post title\" data-extra_key=\"\" data-attr-link=\"1\" data-attr-target=\"0\" data-attr-rel=\"0\" data-option-inline=\"1\" data-attr-static-link=\"{&quot;className&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/parks&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;10 Beautiful Parks in the Center of Prague&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-attr-css=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/theater\" title=\"7 Best Theaters in Prague [with Map]\" data-css=\"\">7 Best Theaters in Prague [with Map]<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/parks\" dynamic-postlink=\"tcb_post_the_permalink\" data-shortcode-id=\"892\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top: 0px !important; margin-top: 0px !important; text-align: center;\" id=\"t-1679565490081\"><span data-shortcode=\"tcb_post_title\" data-shortcode-name=\"Post title\" data-extra_key=\"\" data-attr-link=\"1\" data-attr-target=\"0\" data-attr-rel=\"0\" data-option-inline=\"1\" data-attr-static-link=\"{&quot;className&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/parks&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;10 Beautiful Parks in the Center of Prague&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-attr-css=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/parks\" title=\"10 Beautiful Parks in the Center of Prague\" data-css=\"\">10 Beautiful Parks in the Center of Prague<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/old-town\" dynamic-postlink=\"tcb_post_the_permalink\" data-shortcode-id=\"892\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top: 0px !important; margin-top: 0px !important; text-align: center;\" id=\"t-1679565490081\"><span data-shortcode=\"tcb_post_title\" data-shortcode-name=\"Post title\" data-extra_key=\"\" data-attr-link=\"1\" data-attr-target=\"0\" data-attr-rel=\"0\" data-option-inline=\"1\" data-attr-static-link=\"{&quot;className&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/parks&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;10 Beautiful Parks in the Center of Prague&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-attr-css=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/old-town\" title=\"Prague Old Town: Shopping, Sightseeing &amp; Restaurants\" data-css=\"\">Prague Old Town: Shopping, Sightseeing &amp; Restaurants<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/museum\" dynamic-postlink=\"tcb_post_the_permalink\" data-shortcode-id=\"892\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top: 0px !important; margin-top: 0px !important; text-align: center;\" id=\"t-1679565490081\"><span data-shortcode=\"tcb_post_title\" data-shortcode-name=\"Post title\" data-extra_key=\"\" data-attr-link=\"1\" data-attr-target=\"0\" data-attr-rel=\"0\" data-option-inline=\"1\" data-attr-static-link=\"{&quot;className&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;href&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/parks&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;10 Beautiful Parks in the Center of Prague&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-attr-css=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/praguetouristinformation.com\/en\/sightseeing\/museum\" title=\"20 Best Museums in Prague\" data-css=\"\">20 Best Museums in Prague<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Estates Theater is a historic theater building on the Fruit Market in Prague&#8217;s Old Town.
